我想安装 dropbox 的依赖项，但我发现apt尝试删除一些相当重要的软件包...请注意消除部分有康普兹或者vim... 如何安全地使用 apt？我使用 Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

答案1
我建议完全删除（清除）Dropbox，然后按照以下说明重新安装：https://www.dropbox.com/install?os=lnx
我在我的系统上也做过（12.04 LTS 也是），没有问题sudo apt-get -f install
答案2
您是否知道最近是否删除了任何主要元包例如ubuntu-desktop？（您可以手动完成此操作...或者，它可能会在删除元包的依赖项后自动发生。）
具体来说，是否已ubuntu-desktop安装？如果没有，则安装它可能会将所需的软件包标记为手动安装的软件包所需，从而使它们不再受自动删除的影响。
